Hi.
How to not display certain files forever? Like 'desktop.ini' etc. Use the filters? But filters are not saved after restart.
Windows 8.1 x64, MultiCommander 4.6.2.1804 x64.
-
Hide files with Hidden attribute.. Right click on toolbar button to the left of the colorwheel and select "Show HIDDEN files/folders"
-
You see, its no way for me. I want to see all hidden/system files, but exept some another via filter.
But filter don't remember latest selection filter.
-
Filter are meant for temporary filtering.. But you can create a script that set that filter and assign it to a hotkey
MC.Explorer.SetViewFilter FILTER=".desktop.ini"
-
Hm... good idea. But you say, filtering is temporary, then explain me what makes the option: 'Remember view filter set on path' ?

The only thing I miss - hide certain files/folders once and for all and everywhere.
-
It remember it during the session. So if you set *.jpg in a folder and goes out of that folder it is not set. but when you go back in it is.
Also the view filter are set per view (tab). not globally.
The idea with them are to use it when you are working with file in a folder and you set a temporary filter for that folder in that view.

Ok, thanks for the explanations of the 'Remember view filter set on path' option, I understood all.
About filter set per tab. It would suit me perfectly, but I can not find where it can be configured.

About filter set per tab. It would come to me completely, but I can not find where it can be configured.
?? The View Filter you set..are the one from that popup or typing you self or activate by script are set only for that tab. It will not change other tabs .
There is no other view filters.
-
Oh, I just thought that is possible to save for each tab different filter settings, permanently.
-
No. Sorry. it is not possible, and one reason for it is just because the filters are per tab.
This kind of settings does not fit well into a per tab session settings. X Numbers of Filters for Y Number of folders for Z number of Tabs.
Need some other kind of settings strategy for that and that is there yet
-
I seem to have an idea: a default filter always *.*
Add the possibility to choose their filters as the default filter.
-
I got something like that planed for the future.. But it is not just that easy to replace *.* with <custom>,
Using a custom filter does not fit into the architecture at the moment.. But I got some plans for some changes so that it will (maybe).

Okay, thank you!
